Pray for Croatia – Covid-19 and Earthquakes

On Monday morning Croatia was hit by a series of earthquakes, the strongest of which was 5,5 on the Richter scale. People have flooded the streets, leaving their homes to keep safe from any further quakes. There is significant material damage, especially around the city center. So far there are 17 injured, 1 under-aged child is in critical condition, and there are over 70 buildings that have been affected. There have been 3 big quakes, and around 100 smaller ones that followed.
At the same time, in recent weeks Croatia has been fighting to flatten the curve on the spreading of the Corona virus. Strict measures have been put in place, asking people to stay at home and avoid social contact. This has now been made difficult or even impossible as people are grouping in the streets as a result of the earthquake. Also, people who have been displaced are being transported into secondary locations. There has been a lot of movement today. We don’t know what the repercussions of this could be in the coming weeks.
The situation with the Corona virus has made it difficult to do any kind of response, especially because no one can offer any kind of aid without the permission of the Red Cross and the government.
